David P. Reed: GoGo does not need to run "Man in the Middle Attacks" on YouTube
(Reed): http://www.reed.com/blog-dpr/?p=174 I have a very strong reaction to this for two reasons: a) because most individuals believe that all content on the Internet must not be the subject of Surveillance by Internet Access Providers, and b) because GoGo's "rationale" for solving their problem in this way is false. It's not the only way to solve their problem, and in fact it is not even the best known way. The best known and tested way to deal with their underlying business problem doesn't require content-type detection at all! - - - David is the designer of the UDP protocol. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein ([email protected]): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy I am a consultant to Google -- I speak only for myself, not for them.
